Life in an Anishinabe Camp

Beautiful artwork helps illuminate the daily lives of the Anishinabe, or “first people”, also known as the Chippewa or Ojibwa. Living in the Western Great Lakes region, the Anishinabe adapted to each season by changing camp locations to better follows the changing weather. Fascinating text describes clan life, different camps for different seasons, how wigwams and other dwellings were built, hunting, clothing, celebrations, and the roles of men and women.
